Absolute Return Funds
Absolute return funds aim to yield real returns for investors, regardless of whether markets are rising or falling. These funds will appeal to people who are more comfortable with lower levels of risk. Similarly, diversified assets funds will suit people wishing to gain exposure to more diversified assets than a typical managed fund.
